By the time of the D Day invasion in 1944, it was pretty clear that Germany could not win the war. The Soviets had been steadily pushing the Germans back since 1943. Additionally, the British and Americans had driven the Germans out of North Africa and were advancing through Italy. So, the question is, how did the war change after D Day? The new Allied front relieved pressure on the Soviets to the east and would drain German resources even further, ultimately helping to hasten the end of hostilities. But was it a 'turning point'? Yes and no. The most influential turning points of the German war had already been turned by then. Think of the Normandy invasion as another (very big) nail in Germany's coffin.
